You guessed it - Bill Clinton. Everything is his fault! This time, they claim that Clinton and the Democrats forced banks to make loans to minorities and others who weren't qualified, and threatened bankers with fines if they didn't do so.

You KNEW that the rethugs would try to make this a racial issue and blame it on the Democrats.

3. We need an ad that shows Phil Gramm slipping that legislation
in the last few hours before Christmas recess. Something really hard hitting.

7. The Great and Powerful Clenis Strikes Again!
That man is about as powerful as they come! Every time I turn around Republicans are pointing at him and screaming!! What a man!


Of course that bill is evil... that's why so many Republicans voted for it!! And gee... how many years were the Republicans in power and able to rescind all that nonsense... but no... instead they stuffed their pockets and their fat faces... now they cry foul. Fuck 'em.
